Emmett found an old shed right next to one of his sets. We've been walking past it for a couple weeks now, but yesterday he let out with a yell and came out of the brush with this. I've always had poor luck finding them, but maybe he'll develop an eye for it. Anyone else finding any?

Some folks spend a lot of time hunting sheds. I've never looked on purpose, but find one now and then while doing something else.
Seems like its usually about March here when the deer start to drop them.

We have a while to wait before they start dropping typically. My 15 year old gets pretty serious about it going over the farm many times a week. Funny or sad part is he finds little ones spike and forks. His younger brother has not into goes now and then findes the larger nice ones.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

Im seeing some still wearing antlers, and some that have already shed out. The antler he found is from a previous year though, tucked up under a cedar where there isn't much snow.

Nothing yet but wouldn't be surprised if there are a few out there. This cold spell that just settled in might help drop a few.
